The world war one was the neutral first test remaining
The Articles of Confederation were essentially an early version of the US Constitution that were created as a governing agreement among the 13 original colonies/states to fight the Revolution and establish some limited federal power.
Hope that helps! :)
The correct answer is "passage of a new excise tax."
This tax passed on whiskey in 1791, caused significant uproar from the American citizens. One of the reasons why it caused an uproar was because taxes put on the American people by a strong central government was the initial reason the US declared their independence from Great Britain. Americans were scared that this would be the beginning of another out of touch federal government that would force taxes on their citizens. To show their disapproval of this tax, citizens rebelled by using violence and intimidation tactics to scare tax collectors.
Because the Articles of Confederation where extremely weak forms of government and pretty much had to be scrapped before the constitution was written.
